If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer it can be a very frightening time, and when we are frightened it can be hard to think clearly. Do you have questions about the scientific and medical terminology that your doctors seem to assume you understand? Are you confused about all your treatment options? Are you concerned that your medical treatment is or has been mismanaged and that you might be a victim of malpractice? If you are searching for answers to any of those questions then this is the book to turn to.

Mark Gerald Weissinger, M.D., and Jeffrey H. Dover, Attorney at Law, of the Dover Law Firm prosecute medical malpractice cases in Georgia, but the information they share in this reference book is invaluable for everyone who is confronting a diagnosis of cancer and particularly useful if you think your health care has been mismanaged. Make no mistake about it though; these two professionals make it abundantly clear that pursuing a case of medical malpractice requires a skillful analysis of your situation, and in the hands of less skilled professionals, is fraught with pitfalls and errors.

This book is both a reference book and a cautionary tale. It provides invaluable advice for both patients and caregivers. You are likely to find that this is the book you carry with you to your doctor’s visits to guide you along your challenging journey.
